i love this question

in response to a previous post ("geeks, girls, hissyfits") anonymous notes...

"WFF might be full of bitter jackholes, but what it lacks in character
it makes up for in sheer traffic volume."

the anonymous mailer is right, i mean, we've all seen those stats on the WAFF page as well as the Drake page and hipwader has them too... -- or is he. I've noticed a number of blogs -- fly fishing blogs -- recently, that proclaim the readership numbers. Here's a survey of the blogs/BBs on my sidebar in re. to their published trafic numbers:
The Drake: Visitors per minute when I checked: 4.982
Westfly: no stats i could find other than 70 active topics today.
Dan Blanton: no stats
flies and fins: "Users browsing this forum: None"
Fly Anglers Online: 58 active topics today.
Flyfish saltwaters: 17 active topics today
Flyfisherman: 122 uses in last 30 min (includes all network's boards)
Hipwader: couldn't find stats
Noreast: 100 active topics today (not all FF)
Reel Time: 51 active topics today
Small Streams: Honestly, I don't know what they've done to their boards...
Washington Fly Fishing: "current active users": 171 (27 members/144 guests)


Hmmmmmm......
Very, very interesting. Yet we must agress, with no real constant, it's impossible to draw conclusions. However, generalizations..... now that's anoter story, yes?

Feel free to discuss
